Volume content
The air conditioning of large non-domestic buildings is becoming an increasing trend, even in moderately mild climatic zones. This is often needed to avoid…
The work described in this paper formed part of the European UrbVent project on urban ventilation.Measurements of wind speed, wind direction, and air…
This paper introduces a concept of robustness of an air distribution method, which is defined as being capable of meeting the ventilation requirements…
Ventilation towers are often incorporated into the design of naturally-ventilated buildings. These towers increase the physical height of the building and…
This research grows out of a desire to find a Solar-Wind Generated Roof Ventilation System for low-cost dwellings located in high building density urban…
This paper reviews the current literature on discharge coefficients (CD) of openings and compares different studies for wind-driven cross-ventilation.…
To accurately estimate the natural ventilation of outdoor spaces surrounded by low-rise buildings using a wind tunnel requires correct representation of the…
Top down natural ventilation systems, usually referred to as ‘windcatchers’, have been used recently in modern non-domestic buildings in the UK. These…
This paper presents a three-dimensional zonal model, ZAER, for heat transfer and air flow calculations. It is based on an intermediate approach between…
A zonal model is an intermediate approach between computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and single-room models. It can give results faster than CFD and be more…
